Reborn as My Enemy’s Child Chapter 13
While Xena suffered daily, I celebrated three birthdays and turned three years old.It was winter.I sat by the window, snacking on peanuts and candy, watching the scene outside with curiosity.Xena was out there, shivering in a thin nightgown and slippers, scrubbing clothes and shoes in the freezing wind. It was almost pitiful.It was almost like that time she shredded my blanket and forced me to kneel naked in the snow, begging for her forgiveness.As for her friends, I had dealt with each one of them. Some went bankrupt, others lost their jobs.It dulled my hatred a little.But Blake still hung over my thoughts like a ticking time bomb.One day, the Lincolns received an invitation to a banquet.Felix told Xena, “You’re still her mother, and Zoe can’t be without you. So, you’ll be the one to take care of her.”Xena and I exchanged a glance. Our eyes were filled with ambition and resentment, both determined to see this through to the end.We had a deal. If she helped me, sh

People who had been trying to cozy up to Felix quickly stepped back. A circle of onlookers watched Blake with amused smirks, like he was the evening’s entertainment.Felix sneered. “Mr. Smith, don’t throw around baseless accusations. I’m an honest businessman.”Blake snapped, “Cut the crap! You knew that land was protected for historical preservation, but you pretended to bid against me just to drive me into bankruptcy!”Felix listened calmly, then smirked. “Even if I knew about it, so what?”“Damn it! Just wait. I’ll make your life a living hell!”After the commotion ended, Xena handed me over to Blake as planned.Xena suddenly seemed nervous. “Are you sure this is going to work?”“It will,” I reassured her calmly.Soon, I was passed into a pair of large hands. I knew they belonged to Blake, so I pretended to be fast asleep.“Xena, what kind of game are you playing?” Blake’s voice was suspicious as he stared at me, making me uneasy under his gaze.Xena’s voice trembled. “Wha

The car sped down the highway. I was in Blake’s arms, while Xena sat in the passenger seat.I had done everything I could to stall them, and finally, I saw the flash of police lights in the rearview mirror. I had called 911 the moment Leo started driving off the usual route.Panicking, Blake knocked Felix unconscious and dragged Xena and me into his car.In the darkness, Blake let out a cold laugh. “Xena, I’ve given you so many chances, and this is how you repay me? Impressive.”Xena was trembling. “Blake, I did exactly what you asked. I brought her out for you!“Please, for the sake of our parents, don’t make this harder for me.”Blake scoffed, his voice deep and threatening. “You’re useless as a pawn and a failure as a tool. I’m done with you.”There was a struggle and the sound of screaming. A rush of cold air hit me, and when I opened my eyes, I saw Xena being pushed out of the car. Her desperate cries echoed in the night.I was stunned. I knew Blake was twisted, but I didn

When I opened my eyes, the strong smell of antiseptic filled the air.I shifted uncomfortably, and the movement seemed to wake Felix. His eyes were bloodshot, and when he saw I was awake, he quickly pressed the call button. “Are you okay?”I nodded, trying to shake off the grogginess. “I’m fine.”Then I asked, “What about Blake? Is he in jail? And what about Xena?”“Xena’s badly injured. She’s paralyzed from the neck down. Blake crashed the car into a bridge. He hurt his hand but got arrested.“But he held onto you the whole time. You didn’t get hurt.“You just passed out from the shock and have a few minor scrapes.”I was a bit surprised. I didn’t think he would actually try to crash the car. But I was glad he survived. Now he would face justice. I had already come to terms with dying. If taking down a monster like him was the price, I was willing to pay it.And Blake?He always claimed to love me, but his actions never matched his words. Maybe, in those final moments, he

“Ah…!”The pain was unbearable.Xena Smith poured boiling water directly onto my hand!My eyes widened in gut-wrenching pain, and I let out a heart-wrenching scream.“Xena… Miss Smith, please let me go.“I’m begging you.”I tried to fight back, but someone held me down from behind.I looked up at the bright red dress in front of me, desperation in my voice as I pleaded.Xena’s laughter rang out, clear but crazed.“Someone like you, a nobody, and you dare to think you’re worth comparing to me?”At her signal, another splash of scalding water hit my face.“Xena, look at her face. Doesn’t it look like a cooked lobster?”One of Xena’s lackeys mocked, and then I heard Xena’s voice, dripping with malice.“Mia Zeller, you should be grateful. Trash like you doesn’t deserve a pretty face like this!”She took out a sharp knife and started cutting across my face.I don’t know how, maybe it was the pain or just a desperate will to survive, but I suddenly broke free from their grasp.

When I opened my eyes again, I was wrapped in a warm embrace.Did I… time travel?As I tried to make sense of it, I looked up and met a pair of gentle, loving eyes.Xena?She looked exhausted but had a motherly tenderness about her. Yet, that face belonged to the very same Xena who had been my worst nightmare!“Oh, my sweet baby! You’re my precious little darling.”I stared at her in shock, my eyes wide with disbelief.Her voice was filled with warmth, but I felt a chill run down my spine. Memories of her tormenting me at school replayed in my mind like a horror movie.I struggled frantically in her arms, my tiny hands reaching out to poke her eyes, but I was too small to reach.Startled by my desperate movements, Xena gasped, “Oh no, don’t be scared, sweetheart!”Hearing that familiar voice, it suddenly dawned on me.I had been reborn!And I was now Xena’s daughter!

“Did the baby pee?” asked a clear, firm voice.Xena’s face flushed slightly. “Let me check.”She quickly pulled off the diaper to take a look. “The baby’s fine. No accidents!“Ah!”She let out a scream and tossed me onto the hospital bed.I started wailing immediately.In a flash, Felix Lincoln rushed over. He scooped me up in his arms and gently soothed me, “It’s okay, don’t cry. Daddy’s here.”Then he turned to Xena, furious. “What’s wrong with you? Why would you throw her like that?”Xena pointed at her face in a panic. “She… she peed on me!”“She’s just a baby. She can’t control herself. But you can, can’t you?“How are you going to be a mother if you act like this? She’s so little. What if you hurt her? How am I supposed to trust you to take care of her?”Xena looked both defensive and guilty. “I didn’t mean to!”Felix’s expression turned cold. “Starting today, I’m cutting off your credit cards. You need to stay home and learn how to properly care for a child. No more

From that point on, Xena’s life became a non-stop cycle of taking care of me around the clock. It was a “wonderful” mix of sleepless nights and constant chaos.Whenever she tried to sleep, I would start crying. After an hour of her exhausting attempts to soothe me, just when she thought I had settled down, I would wake up screaming again.When she tried to feed me, I would spit up right in her face.Any chance I got, I would yank her hair or grab at her face.I pushed her to the brink. She had hoped to sweet-talk Felix into getting her credit cards back so she could go shopping. But eventually, she was so fed up that she handed me over to the nanny.The moment the nanny held me, I started crying so loudly it could break everyone’s heart in the whole mansion.Her mother-in-law, my grandma, stormed in, glaring at her. “Xena! What kind of mother are you? You don’t even want to take care of your own child? If you can’t handle it, then get out of my house!“Seriously, what kind of us
